Wow, an email from a real person and not a pre-written response. That is very refreshing. I will be sure to recommend this site to others in my field!

Sharon

That was a quick and complete response to my inquiry!!!!! Thank you.

Roger

Thank you for your quick response. I can take unlimited courses for up to one year? That means I can apply some of the courses for this year’s deadline, and take additional courses after that toward my next period deadline!
